Board of Directors
The YRDFA Board of Directors are from Yukon River communities and
represent the various fishing districts.
The Board forms a thirty (30) member delegation representative
of the diverse users of salmon in the Yukon River drainage. Salmon users in the drainage include those
under the category of subsistence user, commercial user / small processor, sportfish user and large
processor.
Board members are nominated and then YRDFA members vote to elect a board member
for their district. To make decisions that affect the salmon fishery, YRDFA
Board of Directors work by consensus.
